Application filed June 7, 1886. Serial No. 204,318. (No model.)

9, a side View of the head separated from the' To all whom it may.concern:

Be it known that I, CARL HiiFrNER, of Stuttgart, Wiirtemberg, Germany,have invented a new and Improved Scarf-Pin, of 5 which the followingspecification is' a full,

clear, and exact description.

This invention relates to afolding scarf-pin, which offers the followingadvantages over the ordinary scarf-pin: First, the new pin does not bendas the other pins generally do when introduced into the scarf; second,it is very handy, can be easily adjusted, and will never get loose;third, after the pin has been introduced into the scarf and the shankturned 5 down it stands strongly fixed and cannot possibly be lost.

That part of the pin which enters into the scarf may be of a round,oval, square, or any other form; but it is preferable to make it of asquare section, thus preventing the possibility of its turning in thecloth. The pin will readily enter, and there will be seen nothing of itbut the head.

The accompanying drawings show the pin 5 in different positions andviews.

' Figure 1 is a perspective view of a scarf with pin attached. Fig. 2 isa front view of the pin with the headO removed; Fig. 3, a top View ofthe same; Fig. 4,a side View of the same; Fig. 5, afront view of the pinwith head attached; Fig. 6, a side view of the same.

pin; Fig. 10, a side View of the head attached to the pin; Fig. 11, atop View of the pin, and Fig. 12 a bottom view of the same.

A is the lower part or shank of the pin, which is contracted at itsupper end to form a tongue, A. One of the faces of the tongue isprovided with a groove, B.

G is the upper part or head of the pin,whicl1 forms aright angle withthe shank when the same is turned around a small pivot, D, pass- Thelower part of this head 0 is provided with a notch or incision, G whichcorresponds with V the tongue A of the shank A.

If the two pieces A and G are not folded, but are in line, alongitudinal rib, 0, inside of the incision 0 will enter the groove B ofthe tongue A. On folding the pin, however, the

head will slide alongside of the tongue A, after which a nose, 0 willfall into the groove B, and thus fix the head of the pinin a horizontalposition.

I claim as my invention- The combination of shank A, havinggroovedtongue A, with'notched pivoted head 0, hav- CARL HiiFFNER.
